Caprock, Texas, is a sleepy cow town until oil is discovered in the 1920s. Suddenly thousands of people stream in to find their fortune. Some are honest folk like Elise and Victor Underwood, who pray for a little luck with their daily bread. But too many are two-bit swindlers. And then there's frontier mobster Big Boy Daugherty. Sheriff Dave Buckalew faces a whole different set of circumstances as his town springs to life -- in good and not-so-good ways.

The town of Caprock is loosely based on Crane in West Texas, where Kelton grew up, although Crane did not exist until the oil boom.

Honor at Daybreak represents a departure for Kelton. There is no single dominant figure. Although Sheriff Buckalew represents a quiet strength that binds his town together, this is a book in which an entire community joins together to save itself.

Jack McCoy was born in the small rural town of Cleburne, TX in 1929. Inspired by the 1948 Navy slogan, Join the Navy and See the World and enamored by his brother's service, Jack enlisted in the Navy straight out of high school. After his service in the Korean War, Jack was discharged in 1952 with the Bronze Star Medal and Korean Presidential Unit Citation. Decades later, Jack recounts these years of his life as a young Tugboat Sailor and the rich history of the Korean people. Jack currently resides in Crowley, Texas with his wife Nouhad. His journey is one of adventure, courage and humanity.
